Despite persisting in popularity, email is still plagued with
information overload, hindering the workflow of data handled by the user. Just
as Semantic Web technologies promise to revolutionize the Web, we aspire to
use ...

Establishing conversations in a B2B environment has significantly eased since the advent of standards such as RosettaNet and ebXML. These standardisation efforts have maintained some flexibility in defining interactions ...

We present a Semantic Optimized Service Discovery (Se- mOSD) approach capable of handling Web service search requests on a fine-grained level of detail where we augment semantic service descriptions with statistically built ...

Dynamic discovery based on semantic description of services is an essential aspect of the Semantic Web services integration process. Since not all data required for service discovery can always be included in service ...

Searching for information on the Internet became much easier when Google started delivering their service. We got used to getting the most important (probably) results on the top of the list. But more and more ...

The integration of Electronic Patient Record (EPR) systems is at the centre of many of the new regional and national initiatives to integrate clinical processes across department, region, and national levels. Web Service ...

Web services are inherently heterogeneous at both data and behavioral levels because of the nature of the Web, which is the main obstacle to the usability of Web services. The heterogeneity at a behavioral level is generally ...

Web service interactions have triggered the initiative to identify and solve mismatches from a behavioral aspect. Current approaches are limited since they mainly focus on control-flow but largely ignore data-flow. In this ...

Service-oriented architectures - and particularly the Web service technologies that enable them, such as WSDL (Web Services Description Language) and SOAP - are widely acknowledged for their potential to revolutionize ...

Social network and data portability has recently gained a lot
of interest as one of the issues for social media sites on the Web. In this
paper, we will show how Semantic Web technologies and especially the
FOAF and ...

We apply our work on Web service discovery with initially incomplete information to the problem of service com- position. Rich semantic descriptions of Goals and Web ser- vices allow the unambiguous specification of ...

The SemanticWeb and the SemanticWeb Services build a natural application area for Intelligent Agents, namely querying and reasoning about structured knowledge and semantic descriptions of services and their interfaces on ...

This paper overviews and compares the DERI and DEI-Cefriel approaches to the SWS-Challenge workshop mediation scenario in terms of the utilized underlying technologies and delivered solutions. In the mediation scenario one ...

The Web has experienced an exponential growth in the use of weblogs or blogs. Blog entries are generally organised using tags, informally defined labels which are increasingly being proposed as a `grassroots¿ answer to ...

Various proposals for automating the discovery of Web services are available. Most of them regard the terms service and Web
service as synonymous. We believe these two terms are not equivalent and it is relevant to ...

This paper describes an implementation of an Adapter that converts XML to a Web Service Modeling Language (WSML) . WSML is the language used to describe Web Service Modeling Ontology (WSMO) concepts, related ...
